Management of a human immunodeficiency virus case with discordant antiviral drug resistance profiles in cerebrospinal fluid compared with plasma: a case report.
Article in Journal of medical case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundHuman immunodeficiency virus-1-associated neurocognitive disorder is a known complication in individuals treated with antiretroviral therapy. Cerebrospinal fluid escape, which is defined as discordant higher cerebrospinal fluid viremia than plasma, may occur in antiretroviral therapy-experienced individuals. Different cerebrospinal fluid versus plasma mutation patterns have been observed in individuals with cerebrospinal fluid escape. CASE PRESENTATION: A 46-year-old adult African male with human immunodeficiency virus-1 infection and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome based on cerebral toxoplasmosis and a chronic hepatitis B virus infection developed cerebrospinal fluid escape. A different human immunodeficiency virus-1 genotypic drug resistance profile was observed in plasma compared with cerebrospinal fluid. Brain biopsy and cerebral magnetic resonance imaging indicated the development of human immunodeficiency virus encephalopathy. A discordant protease inhibitor mutation/wild-type T74PT in plasma but not in cerebrospinal fluid indicated poor central nervous system penetration due to the selective pressure of drug therapy. An intensified antiretroviral therapy regimen including dolutegravir with good central nervous system penetration improved conditions.
conclusionsThis case shows the importance of measuring human immunodeficiency virus drug resistance in cerebrospinal fluid, which might differ from resistance detected in plasma samples and target effective antiretroviral therapy treatment accordingly.
